Myth: They are rejected because they play video games all day
Truth: They play video games all day because they are rejected

I remember years ago I had to attend meetings with the department heads of a company. The department heads were highly educated engineers and scientists but it was the HR manager who guided those discussions. She simply had higher emotional intelligence levels than everyone else in the room. The others didn’t even realize that she was guiding the conversations. I was often in awe of her because if she had wanted to do so, she could have completely controlled that company. Since then, I have noticed the same thing in other meetings. The person who understood human psychology the best was often the one actually in charge.

First, safety regulations are written in blood. There’s a reason that hiring minimum wage interns instead of seasoned engineers and grey-haired 50 yr old retired Navy submariners is a bad idea.
Second, Stockton Rush looks exactly like a fictional character named Stockton Rush.

- Another common misconception when it comes to celebrities using escorts is the service they pay for. It's not sex, it's anonymity.
- Frank Sinatra once said, I'm paraphrasing, "It's not that you're paying them for sex per se, it's that you're paying them to go away after the session."
- In my opinion going the escort route is ESPECIALLY important for men who are financially savvy but not very physically attractive, this is coming from an attractive dude who has many average looking wealthy friends.

I tell my guys all the time, “These women crave me so much because of my looks charm, your money isn’t going to get you that treatment. Everything they do will be more far more transactional and not out pure sexual desire. Relationships are off the table. Pay the upfront cost and fee to get your needs met, you can afford it. You don’t have to try to play the game the way I do to get the same results. Far less time consuming and far more effective.”

- "I dont pay them for sex. I pay them to leave." - Charlie "Carlito" Sheen

- Modern day philanthropy is primarily self-serving and ego-driven more than it is actual altruism. A bunch of very wealthy people, largely divorced from reality, seeking accolades and affirmations that they are good. Some may have their heart in the right place, but time and time again, the results show a disconnect, and that being in such a privileged position does not automatically qualify someone of "knowing what's best" or that their ideal "greater good" is, well, actually good.

- As a designer from a developing country, I see this problem even when designers from those countries try to design for rural communities or less developed communities in the same country. Designers are more likely to come from developed cities, and higher income households. So they rarely have the knowledge or the understanding of the needs of other communities.

- As a person with a masters degree in design, I can tell you most designers are arrogant and self absorbed (Negroponte is the poster child of this). They should read Victor Papanek’s Design for the Real World. It came out in 1971, and the design community ostracized him. He was spot on in the book though. Design education is loaded with a BS curriculum of saving the world and noblesse oblige. Leave your politics at the door and focus on context and needs, not a virtue signaling, self important solutions. I mean, they don’t have water, so let’s give them laptops.

- Please do more videos about failed products. It's very intriguing to find out why products fail so we don't make the same mistakes

- IT-guy here with 30 years of experience. The OLPC-project perhaps flunked, but it helped to set the bar, and I believe it helped to act as a catalyst for cheap computers. This was at a time when a laptop costed like 10 times the price of a OLPC. OLPC was the start of the race to the price-bottom. "price anchoring" is the technical term I believe. And today we have stuff like Raspberry PI that gives you excellent computing performance for a few bucks.

- That's why when designing for any market or customer, you must first ask for their needs, come up with a basic idea, and ask them for feedback and not just blindly provide a solution.

>>7 The issue is much, much, more fundamental. The vast majority of foreign aid, in any form, is more about ego boosting of donors or diplomacy. One of the common examples of this is clothing and textiles industry in Nigeria, back in the 80's it was a major industry with 30+ plants but in the modern day more than 80% of textile products are second hand from developing countries. You see the same issue with food aid, why farm when a large portion of your nation food supply is given for free by rich nations? You can't compete against structurally free products as a business.
This is a similar issue you have with "designing" for developing nations, it skips loads of economic realities to "aid" these people.
A far more effective form of aid is investing local business' but also allowing them to fail and recognize when a business doesn't work, rather than giving free shit or giving money. Instead of setting up a water pump thats expensive and nobody knows how to fix or otherwise get parts for, set up a company that sells waterpumps. Yes, that means some communities might need to leave where they live because where they live isn't hospitable with their current standard of living that's no different in the west. We don't fund would be ghost towns in the west and have a community reliant on foreign handouts to continue existing, why do that in Africa?

Reliance of foreign aid isn't aiding the people.

You can perfectly develop products for different cultures, most products are developed at least partially with different cultures in mind. It's them wanting or needing it that's the real issue with the product you designed.
